The pirates sat and forgot, and they really believed the nine truths and one lie.

The anti-life equation must not fall into the hands of Iron Man. Shamrock knew that this time, he must use all his strength to fight the enemy and must not let Lord Im down.

The crimson metal giant Franky focused his huge optical lens on Shamrock who was slowly walking out from behind the bunker.

Behind the lens where energy flows, complex sensors clearly capture every detail of this human being.

The deep facial features were almost identical to that man's, the same red hair, and even the slight contours between the eyebrows were very similar.

"Super...similar..." In Franky's internal processor, the data stream subconsciously compared with the known image.

The Knights of God before him and the Four Emperors, Red-Haired Shanks, who was famous in the New World and whom his dear Captain Luffy admired so much, were simply cut from the same mold.

However, this superficial similarity was completely broken in the next second.

Shamrock stood still. His face no longer had Shanks' signature smile, which was a bit free and heroic. Instead, there was a kind of coldness and arrogance that came from the bones, as if he was looking at an ant.

He adjusted his white gloves, and when his eyes swept over Franky's huge metal body, there was no shock or fear in his eyes, only pure disdain and disgust, as if he was looking at a flawed tool.

Franky had seen this kind of look in other Celestial Dragons before. It was a deep-rooted sense of racial superiority that did not regard other lives as equals.

The internal database quickly reviewed the fragments of intelligence about Shamrock: Shanks' twin brother, who had taken a completely opposite path.

One is the highest guard of the Celestial Dragons who considers himself a descendant of God and treats all living beings as worthless. The other is a free pirate who abandoned his so-called "noble" status, galloped across the sea, and won the respect of countless people including Luffy.

Shamrock's definition of Shanks is that he hates his own brother for degrading himself and associating with "untouchables" and "enemies".

A low roar with a distinct metallic friction sound came from Franky's voice box. It was his imitation of a sigh or dissatisfaction.

Although Franky has no flesh and blood on his body and has been completely transformed into a silicon-based life form, all his previous human emotions and memories are retained.

Franky thought of his teacher Tom, who built a ship for the Pirate King Roger. After Roger was executed, the fishman Tom was held accountable afterwards. After completing the sea train, the original crime he committed could be offset.

At the instruction of the Celestial Dragons, Spandam wanted to seize the blueprints of Pluto. He framed Franky and stole Franky's Battle ship to attack Judicial Island.

In the end, Tom exchanged his own life for Franky's, but his hatred for the Celestial Dragons and his vengeance for his mentor will never fade away.

After being transformed into a Transformer, Franky's land form is a sea train. This is because he can't let go of Teacher Tom and wants to become a great shipbuilder like Teacher Tom.

The crimson metal giant lowered its massive head slightly, its optical lens locked onto Shamrock. A voice came through the external speakers, echoing clearly over the ruins: "Shamrock..."

He pronounced the name with a complicated tone, "Your face is exactly like Shanks's."

He paused, and his huge metal fingers clenched slightly, making a clanging sound. "Since my Captain Luffy admires Shanks so much..."

He said this slowly, with an unquestionable tone, as if this was the biggest concession he could make, "I can spare your life."

But then, the light from his optical mirror suddenly became sharp, and there seemed to be a more turbulent energy gathering under the crimson armor. He raised his huge arm and pointed at the other Celestial Dragons, "But the Celestial Dragons are not so lucky!"

The moment the words fell, a terrifying aura mixed with engine oil, high-temperature metal and tremendous energy erupted with Franky as the center, sweeping across the entire battlefield like an invisible shock wave!

This was a naked warning and also a final ultimatum. The favor was only enough to buy Shamrock's life, and this favor came entirely from the young man wearing a straw hat and with a bright smile who was thousands of miles away.

Even though Soundwave had just met Franky not too long ago and had just started transforming into a Transformer with a human body, he was rejected by some of the elders who thought the elders were too partial.

It wasn't until Franky showed his value and his creative ideas that he designed many handy weapons for the Transformers, each of which was extremely powerful.

Soundwave has never seen Franky get angry. He is not a very warlike person and is one of the few calm and wise people among the Decepticon Transformers.

"Franky, I've heard of this name. Oh, I remember... So you are the apprentice of that fish. Isn't it your responsibility that Tom died on Judicial Island?"

Not only did Shamrock not take Franky's kindness to heart, he also took the initiative to uncover the deepest scars in Franky's heart.

In the eyes of the Celestial Dragons, the fishman Tom is just a worthless life, but he refused to hand over the design drawings of Pluto before he died.

It is true that the Sea Train brought a lot of benefits to the Celestial Dragons, but they did not show any gratitude at all. Spandam and his agents were really a bunch of trash, and they did not get the Pluto design drawings in the end.

The moment Mr. Tom's name was mentioned, Franky's huge metal body shook violently, not because of the physical impact, but because of the violent shock of his emotional core.

The low, steady hum of energy in his chest suddenly deteriorated, turning into a chaotic, sharp hiss, like an overloaded engine about to explode.

"You dare to mention him!"

It was no longer an electronic sound processed by speakers, but a roar mixed with extreme anger, grief and metallic friction, like millions of hacksaws tearing steel, shaking the air.

Without any warning at all, the huge, crimson metal arm suddenly rose up with a terrifying speed that made the sound of tearing through the wind.

However, he did not hit Shamrock directly (his remaining sanity might still be concerned about the delicate relationship between Luffy and Shanks), but instead slammed the ground not far from Shamrock with destructive force.

Boom! The ground shook as the palm landed. The solid ground cracked like a fragile biscuit, forming a huge, deep crater.

The affected remaining building ruins collapsed again like a sand castle, and the reinforced concrete was crushed into powder by the irresistible force, mixed with the dust that soared into the sky.

Shamrock's gorgeous coat was blown tightly to his body by the air waves, but he still stood where he was.

The disgusting arrogant sneer on his face seemed to become even stronger, admiring the anger he had ignited with his own hands.
